Subject: Keano transferred to Milton Keynes !

Evening everyone

Just a short message from Chantelle to say that Keano has been transferred to Milton Keynes ward now, he is stable, not on oxygen but doctors still treating him for the chronic lung infection, pneumonia and still on a feeding tube.

She is not sure when the doctors might discharge Keano and it wont be that soon but if it does happen she needs to be in Milton Keynes.
She is asking if anyone knows of any accommodation that she could use whilst waiting for Keanos bone marrow transplant as Doctors have told her that he must be kept in quarantine to avoid any relapse. His immune system is still very low and can easily pick up infections from families with children, as we all know children in nursery & school pick up alot of infections !
Many thanks for all your prayers and support messages !
Love from Chantelle & Keano
